It’s a great time to be a Kansas City Royals fan! Celebrate the World Series with this fun Royals Blue cocktail and a Kansas City Royals t-shirt and hat flash giveaway!

Kansas City Royals World Series Cocktail from dineanddish.net

If you live in Kansas City, you can’t help but to have caught Royals Fever. The Kansas City Royals post season games have been unbelievable! And here we are, in the World Series, which hasn’t happened for this team since 1985.

In fact, I was in 6th grade and I remember I liked a boy who was hugely excited that the Kansas City Royals were facing the St Louis Cardinals in the World Series. I had no clue what any of it meant, because well, I was a 6th grade girl and couldn’t be bothered by that kind of stuff. But, in order to get the attention of said boy, I pretended to be the BIGGEST Kansas City Royals super fan! I have vivid memories of talking to him in the hallway before class started about the games and being all twitter-pated that he was talking to me. Needless to say, the “relationship” didn’t really last much past the world series… I mean a girl can only fain interest in something she is clueless about for so long. I’m sure he eventually caught on.

Flash forward to 2014, and the Kansas City Royals are in the World Series again…and it’s a BIG deal! And again, I’m trying to get the attention of a boy, but this time it’s my 12 year old son. You see, it’s pretty cool when your mom knows a thing or two about sports. And when you can have common interests with your almost teenage son (which means conversations that get him saying more than a yes or no grunt answer), that’s a good thing!

Kansas City Royals T-Shirt and Cleanup Hat GIVEAWAY!

I’m excited today to share a fun Kansas City Royals inspired cocktail recipe with you from UV Vodka as well as a women’s Kansas City Royals Scrum Tee and Cleanup Hat from 47 Brand.  As much as I wish cap sleeves would die a quick death, I actually really love this shirt! I think you will too!

This is going to be a 1 day FLASH giveaway, so make sure you enter quickly! Follow the giveaway widget below to enter to win! Thanks and good luck!

A special thank you to UV Vodka and 47 Brand for sponsoring this giveaway!

    I LOVE that shirt. and you are too cute. Plus, I used to pretend I liked dragons to get the interest of other boys. So clearly I was in the wrong crowd, HAH!

    Wouldn’t it be great fun to go to one of the games?! I was at the Padre game in 1984 when they won the pennant. Such a thrill for this baseball lover. BTW, I see the Chiefs beat the Chargers the other day, too. Good time to be KC fans!!

    I was recalling to my kids, that through the last two games of the 1985 world series, I was at a fall Girl Scout camp out. We listened to the final two games in our tent on a radio… this year my oldest was at a Boyscout camp out, during one of the games ACLS games against the Orioles.

    As a girl, George Brett was my dream man. Those blue eyes, that intensity. Hubba hubba. You can take Rick Springfield and Scott Baio. My man spits tobacco and uses pine tar. LOL

    I read an article in the Boston Globe or maybe Sports Illustrated about him when I was 9 or 10. George said he used to stand at third base and hope the ball didn’t come his way. Eventually he realized, he could take anything hit at him and he’d mentally dare the batter to hit it down the line.

    As a young softball player who was afraid to make a mistake at third base, this totally resonated with me. I changed my attitude and became a much better fielder as a result. That season, I tried to get #5 in his honor but someone else had it. So I always wore #6 to be just one away from George but still my own number.

    I’m a Red Sox fan at heart but I’m rooting for KC this week.

    I am a diehard Royals fan having grown up here in KC. We’ve went to Opening Day every year for the last 10 years (probably more)! We used to campout overnight to be at the front of the line (before they put a stop to it). It even snowed on us one year but we didn’t care.

    I love the way our city has united around our Royals. I love the way the guys interact with one another and their fans. We got to go the Wild Card game, an ALDS game, and an ALCS game. I really wish I could make a World Series game. I definitely need some new Royals gear and love that shirt!

    GO ROYALS!!

    I’m glad to see this give-away. I like the ’47 Brand products and I was disappointed that they didn’t really have any Post Season Royals specific items on their page…b/c they have teams that didn’t make it as far, we just didn’t get any love…so, I like that they are making it up in a small way.

Supporting my local independent bookstore @rainydaybooks looks a lot different than it used to these days. Temporarily gone are the days of lingering in store, browsing the shelves, walking out with an armful of books I didn’t expect to buy.

Can’t believe we’re doing the college tour thing already with my second baby! 

So question for any of you who sent your kids to out of state schools or went to out of state schools...how did you do it? She wants to get the heck out of Kansas (I’d like to go with her!). We have money saved, she’ll most likely get a scholarship or two, she’s paying and has money saved as well...but even with that out of state tuition is a beast of an amount. So, did you just assume that student loans were going to be part of that life? And is that worth it to give your kids a shot at a new life outside of your home state? I wish I would have left Kansas for university, and have been here since I was born 😩. I want different for her if that’s what she wants but also just don’t have any experience with how people do out of state college! Any tips?

J is for...jam!

My friend @wakschmale makes the best strawberry jam...and I completely forgot about a jar she gave me last year until this morning. Which then inspired me to make my favorite buttermilk biscuits. So so good. Are you a jam, honey, just butter or plain biscuit fan? I love biscuits allll the ways, except with gravy. I have super bad memories of biscuits and gravy growing up. 🤢
.
I’m still slowly making my way through the alphabet for @kimklassen_innercircle a-z photo challenge. I’m bound and determined to finish. It may just take me a little longer than I originally anticipated 🤗.

It took me 2 months to get this Crispy Chickpea Pantry Pasta recipe up on the blog. 🤦‍♀️But it’s there now! You can find the link in my Instagram profile.

I is for Inspiration!
.
The “long haul” effects of having Covid back in December are really presenting themselves lately. The continuous persistent headaches are taking a toll and the connection between the brain fog and word retrieval function of my brain has been extra challenging. I had no idea a couple months out, the cognitive effects would still be hanging around.
.
With that said, when I get a burst of inspiration I’m grabbing on for dear life. I made our favorite chocolate chip cookies recipe yesterday and felt the desire to update the blog post photos from 2007! We make these cookies all the time, so I’m not sure why it’s taken me so many years to give that poor post some new photos.
.
If you’re interested in the recipe you can find the link currently in my profile. Enjoy!!

It was so strange being on a plane again. I’m so thankful I have the antibodies because the flights were full, which seemed wrong, but everyone around me did seem to keep their masks on, so that was good.

G is for...oh so grateful!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!
